Move Multi-Cam

The create account page always stucks at blank. Completely unusable.

Can’t even use because I don’t own a business.

Sadly, their single camera offering has killed the multicam offering for normal users. No more reasonably priced creator plans. Hopefully someone pops up to take their place. Single cam solutions are weak and a dime a dozen, many free.

Like seriously its just calibrating all the time after i end the session

You can’t even access your own footage unless you wait hours for it to hopefully upload without error… which it won’t.

Can login on the website so it isn’t my account being the issue. When I open the app it say wrong password everytime, I’ve tried reinstalling it, etc.

I’ve been testing Move.ai over the last few months during its Beta stage and have been incredibly impressed with the experience. If you’re looking for something that can compete with REAL MOCAP (not just the cheapest of the inertial suits), read on! I’ll start by acknowledging that there are various other ‘video to motion’ apps and services starting to pop up. This is not the same thing. So how does it work? From my (non-engineering level) understanding, it uses the iPhone’s camera to track the mocap performers various limbs and joints within the volume you set up. The software then uses the different camera angles to solve the real world location of the actor (much like a 3D camera track works), and generate a 3D motion capture file such as an FBX, which can be retargeted to Unreal, 3DsMax, Maya… iClone… you name it. You basically need a couple of iPhones (ideally 11s or newer since you want the wide angle lens for better FOV, though it works with iPhone 8 onwards), a few cheap stands and this app. If you want to see how good the results are, just take a look at the companies Twitter or official website. There’s plenty of comparisons out there, including to Xsens, Vicon, OptiTrack, Rokoko (don’t get me started) and so on. Did I mention you can capture multiple performers at once? And that there’s no drift since it doesn’t use inertial sensors? I used to be an Xsens Awinda owner before I encountered Move.ai. Now I own 6 x iPhone 13s and a Pelican case. That’s right, it out performed my Xsens, so I sold it. Do yourself a favor and check this thing out!

Easily the best, simplest (but still has advanced features), and most affordable mocap software on the market. And most importantly, it works with only 2 cameras minimum! It is truly democratizing mocap. I would suggest to anyone who is even just getting into animation, it is fun to use, produces extremely clean output, and makes my 3d animations look professional. It is worth every penny!
